Description: The Stochastic Oscillator Technical Indicator compares where a security’s price closed relative to its price range over a given time period. The Stochastic Oscillator is displayed as two lines. The main line is called %K. The second line, called %D, is a Moving Average of %K. The %K line is usually displayed as a solid line and the %D line is usually displayed as a dotted line.
There are several ways to interpret a Stochastic Oscillator. Three popular methods include:
Buy when the Oscillator (either %K or %D) falls below a specific level (e.g., 20) and then rises above that level. Sell when the Oscillator rises above a specific level (e.g., 80) and then falls below that level;
Buy when the %K line rises above the %D line and sell when the %K line falls below the %D line;
Look for divergences. For instance: where prices are making a series of new highs and the Stochastic Oscillator is failing to surpass its previous highs.
Calculation
The Stochastic Oscillator has three variables:
%K periods (Pk). This is the number of time periods used in %K calculation. By default is 5;
%K Slowing Periods (Sk). This value controls the internal smoothing of %K. A value of 1 is considered a fast stochastic; a value of 3 is considered a slow stochastic. By default is 3;
%D periods (Pd). This is the number of time periods used when calculating a moving average of %K. By default is 3;
The formula for %K is:
%K = 100*SUM (CLOSE - MIN (LOW, Pk), Sk) / SUM (MAX (HIGH, Pk) - MIN (LOW, Pk)), Sk)
Where:
CLOSE — is today’s closing price;
MIN (LOW, Pk) — is the lowest low in Pk periods;
MAX (HIGH, Pk) — is the highest high in Pk periods.
SUM (CLOSE - MIN (LOW, Pk), Sk) — amount composed CLOSE - MIN (LOW, Pk) for period Sk;
SUM (MAX (HIGH, Pk) - MIN (LOW, Pk)), Sk) — amount composed HIGH (Pk)) - MIN (LOW, Pk) for period Sk.
The %D moving average is calculated according to the formula:
%D = SMA (%K, Pd)
Where:
Pd — is the smoothing period for %K;
SMA — is the Simple Moving Average
以上E文来自于MT4的官方网站,我根据上面的公式导入飞狐,出现调用参数不符的错误,我简单的调整了一下,发现有个括号出现了问题,得出以下的公式
K:SUM(CLOSE-MIN(LOW, Pk),Sk)/SUM(MAX(HIGH, Pk)-MIN(LOW,Pk),Sk);
D:SMA(K,Pd,1)
结果显示出的指标与MT4完全不一样!,求高手指点 |  |  |  |  |
